Paro Tours

Cradled in a wide valley and surrounded by pine-covered hills, Paro is where most Bhutan journeys begin - and for good reason. Home to Bhutan's only international airport, Paro is not just a point of arrival, but a destination packed with natural beauty, spiritual depth, and cultural richness.

From the legendary Tiger's Nest Monastery to riverside dzongs and peaceful countryside trails, Paro tours offer a complete introduction to Bhutan's charm - whether you're here for a short visit or starting a longer adventure

What to Expect on a Paro Tour

Paro has a gentle, welcoming pace. The town itself is quaint, walkable, and surrounded by dramatic Himalayan landscapes. You’ll experience a mix of ancient temples, farmhouses, prayer flags fluttering in the breeze, and one of the most iconic hikes in the world.

Whether you're here for a day tour, a multi-day stay, or as part of a larger Bhutan itinerary, Paro promises moments that stay with you long after your trip ends.

When to Visit Paro
